With the time change coming this weekend is the car smart enough to update the time? It knows the date so it could be smart enough but was BMW?

It doesn't update automatically. This is one thing that is absolutely easier to change using the E60s i-drive than on any other car I have owned. It is totally logical compared to having to try to remember which buttons to press, for how long, in what order in older cars.
mine changed automatically last week....

Maybe they update automatically with NAV but I definitely had to set the clock back an hour in October. Could also be automatic in newer software versions and I had mine updated in January from it original early version. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.
